Subject: [PATCH 1/4] hugetlb: skip to end of PT page mapping when pte not present

HugeTLB address ranges are linearly scanned during fork, unmap and
remap operations. If a non-present entry is encountered, the code
currently continues to the next huge page aligned address. However,
a non-present entry implies that the page table page for that entry
is not present. Therefore, the linear scan can skip to the end of
range mapped by the page table page. This can speed operations on
large sparsely populated hugetlb mappings.

Create a new routine hugetlb_mask_last_page() that will return an
address mask. When the mask is ORed with an address, the result
will be the address of the last huge page mapped by the associated
page table page. Use this mask to update addresses in routines which
linearly scan hugetlb address ranges when a non-present pte is
encountered.

hugetlb_mask_last_page is related to the implementation of
huge_pte_offset as hugetlb_mask_last_page is called when huge_pte_offset
returns NULL. This patch only provides a complete hugetlb_mask_last_page
implementation when CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB is defined.
Architectures which provide their own versions of huge_pte_offset can also
provide their own version of hugetlb_mask_last_page.

I'm wondering whether it's better to return 0 rather than ~0 by default.
Could an arch with !CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB wrongly skip some
valid address ranges with ~0, or perhaps I misread?

And with panic_on_warn, it'll panic only once ;-)

Thank you, thank you, thank you Peter!

Yes, the 'default' return for hugetlb_mask_last_page() should be 0. If
there is no 'optimization', we do not want to modify the address so we
want to OR with 0 not ~0. My bad, I must have been thinking AND instead
of OR.

I will change here as well as in Baolin's patch.

A couple of things here,

In the CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB case covered by this version of
hugetlb_mask_last_page, huge pages can only be PMD_SIZE or PUD_SIZE.
So, the 'case P4D_SIZE:' should not exist and can be removed.

On i386 with CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS=2, PUD_SIZE == PMD_SIZE.
Originally, I coded this as a if .. else if ... statement instead of a
switch. If coded this way, the compiler does not complain about the
duplicate values. The only other alternative I can think of is
something like '#if CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS > 2' around the PUD_SIZE case.

I would prefer the if else if, unless someone can suggest something else?

Ah, I also overlooked this. Thanks Peter, and thanks Mike for updating.
